I don't think so. Treliving still has a chance to sell high on a guy that's likely going to end up as a buyout. I really like Giordano but there is zero chance he lives up to the first half of the contract let alone the back half. He's a good leader but he's never been a great defensive defenseman and last year everything just clicked for him but that will never happen again.

Yep. It's a matter of time until he's the new whipping boy as he will never live up to the contract. I believe he should have been traded while his value was sky high in the offseason as he would have brought back a massive return. In another year teams will only be offering their bad contracts. I don't think he's going to be terrible for the first half of the deal but I doubt he lives up to the contract and that's the first three years of the deal. The last three years of the deal are going to be a disaster.
